Product Description
Texas Hold ’em is not an easy game to play well. To become an expert you must balance many concepts, some of which occasionally contradict each other. In 1988, the first edition appeared.

Rating: 4 / 5
This book is just okay. It’s boring and has repeated information that’s better said in other books that I have read on the matter. Look elsewhere.

I’ve read (or tried to read) this book three times over the course of several months. I am displeased on several levels. I want to let people know other books are far better.
Lousy formatting and lack of grammar lead me to determine this book has been published by novices. I would not be so upset, except the content is questionable too, not just the format. At best, this book is NOT a reference work (because it is SO hard to follow a train of thought). I wonder about the other publications of Two Plus Two Publishing?
Advanced poker advice given here is for folks NOT interested in statistics or numbers. I feel obligated to inform readers that Sklansky’s “Hand Groupings” are arbitrary–they have nothing to do with statistical chances of winning.
The most irritating aspect of this book is the constant advertisement for other Sklansky books. Comments like, “For those of you who are interested in the rationale behind these rankings, see HOLD EM POKER by David Sklansky” (Sklansky 2005:17) reinforce my money was NOT well-spent in buying this book.
